My book Her muse Overfilled with Ink is online here now! Coming soon to Barnes & Noble and Amazon :)
The Girl with the Tattoos
I love and adore her
So much that at times
I must ignore…
Her
See, she’s gorgeous
And has powers
You know, wrap around my
Finger like a snake
On a branch powers
—Beautiful almond shaped
Eyes the color of chestnuts
With a hint of sunrise
Honey Cinnamon tasting skin
That tells a story
Her ink bleeds
Freedom of speech
Happiness, pride
And more recently
Sorrow
Penetrating her skin
As it cries tears of
Joy mixed with moans
Of hurt
Squeezing, toe curling
Addiction
Ever since the days
My eyes met her
The pressure built up
To speak or not to speak
My thoughts became bleak
Until we found some commonality
Her brain
Musically infused
Enthuses me to yearn
For her touch
To be adjacent to her…
Story telling skin
Sensually hypnotizing
Thoughts of nothing
but that of sin
She filled in all my
Grey areas with black
Ink like a newspaper
Further enlightening
The world with her
Stories of our love
And growth
The hurt and pain she
Sustained
Yet she’s strong enough
To endure more
Allowing herself
To play on the battlefield
Of love yet again
The girl with the tattoos
I love her like a homie
A lover
And more so…
A friend
Yesterday I had an epiphany
That today I mean more to me
Than I ever will to you
As the thoughts came
I battled with the tears in my eyes
Pride seeped through my guard
That was let down
Pow— I think my heart hit the ground
Left never to be found whole again
Where does love go when its finished
Playing with our minds
Sucking the life out of souls
Once very warm
Now turned to stone
At the bottom of the pit
The worm left in the bottle
To think just the other day
I was swept off my feet
And you were the apple
Of my eye
But it withered away
Like his money after payday
Tired of being tired
Your time has expired
You are no longer the umpire
There’s no doubt that you have striked out…
Yesterday I had an epiphany
And today I am free to be me
To please me
…not be a prisoner of my own thoughts
Madres
Mothers
— truth speakers
With words that echo
Through us like a cave
And speaks to our souls everyday
Even before the very first day
In your arms you held
We should be called
inspiration leaders
Common sense and
nurture feeders
Planters of the seed
Of affection
Soul fully profound
The love and care
Lost and found
Your voice…
Such a soothing sound
My beautiful sunrise
After the warmest sunset
Comforting when you
Need to be relieved of stress
Motherly instinct always on
As you are always aware
When something is wrong
Earliest person to wake
After being the last
To drop asleep at night
Strong & knowledgeable
To know which battles
are worth the fight
Our work is never done,right?
A sparrow spreading it’s wings
Until her babies are
Ready to soar the sky
Cheers to all the mothers
Even the ones whom
We already said goodbye
Who hid their fears
And tears
Turned pain into laughter
Worked their way from
Nothing to upper middle class
Well, maybe just middle class
But it feels like it’s the top
Of the world.
A cold world it is sometimes
You always find the time
To let your radiant light
Shine upon us
And for this..
We thank you
Untitled
The brain is bittersweet
Constant thoughts of you make me weak
Forever in my heart it has already made up
It’s mind
Some say true love is hard to find
I say it’s hard to keep
Reality is sometimes steep
Confusion awakes me from sleep
Was it lust turned into love?
Can this thing called love even be trusted?
That’s it, I know I’m in too deep
I dreamed of this day
Even made up my mind to pray
Simply that you a knight and shining armor
Would come my way
Till this very day
You stay
Once having tormented me with words
Thoughts made up —plays
Is it guilt
Because it’s only making me stronger
The longer you find time to stress me
With your tricks of the mind
Time will unravel all the masculine
Walks of your life
Hidden by strife
Disoriented by love
Rained down on from above
Turned into passion
Painfully pleasured our love hate relationship
Couldn’t get any better
My love rubbed you the wrong way
Everything that glitters isn’t Gold
Hey
Something in my eyes has you hypnotized
Surprised that you obtained anything less than perfect
The picture painted previously sustained some damage
Bare with it’s solemnity
While joining forces being scared of love made me forfeit
I nearly lost it as he bent down on one knee
Moisture risen
Love
Such a decision
It’s never what you truly envision
But you’ll know when it’s true
Just another love hate story
Turned into glory
From me to you.
O M H
Ode to My Hips
Swift never stiff
Caramel brown
Surround sound
When flicked slapped
or pinched
The pear to my eight
Hour glass shaped
Eccentric curves
Well deserved
Given to me at birth
To help populate this earth
Sculpted by Him
This perfect form
Mixed with mud from Africa
Clay from the flowing
Rivers Of Belize
The original love of this land
That the Native Americans left
Behind in their prime
A sprinkle of Latino
As it rains in Puerto Rico
You see , it took a
While to form figures
Of perfection
Not necessarily to match
My complexion
A mere reflection of the
Sun rising at dawn
Blessing the horizon with light
Pink sand on a beach
The seed to this fruit
Full of coconut juice
Released with the breaking
Of water
Reared a baby for
A little over 5 months
And out onto a cloud
Born
was my first son
No longer just a part
Of my figure
As time has progressed
They’ve grown
Giving a special home to
Love sent from above
Ode to My hips
They never allow my
Back bone to slip
Eye openers for most
For this I give a toast
Now this…
Ode to my hips
It’s My Life
It’s My Life,
everything I do is for you
This is a constant war between us
and the real truth
I’m painting pictures of brighter days
Filled with smarter children
In search of the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow
After being subdue to the cold
Forced onto us by the sleet and the rain
The pain can only make you stronger
Heavy as the weight of the world
On all of our shoulders
I’m trying to knock these barriers down
Bolders
Building an army of soldiers
Armed with knowledge
Not guns, trickery, diseases
It was cool when we
came from being united
Instead we stand divided
Knocking down our own people
Stand strong
Speak no evil
Hear no evil
Vision being Consistently blurred
By evil
I’m a product of a village raising this child —proud
Dont pay attention to my chanel
Glasses, Diamond ring
Listen to my words
Phenomenally flowing
Not trying to be controlling
Once frozen in time
Fashion forwardness is great
But let’s get this straight
They said on the record that
Their clothes weren’t made for blacks
Yet that has no impact
We continue to put money on their pockets
Our own people selling out
Not to lose customers
“Republicans buy sneakers too”
Boo!!
R.I.P to wackness
Bleaching botox
Technology robots
Talk about a Mac standing around
A bunch of pcs
I’m on a feeding frenzy
Free knowledge
Let’s aspire to go to college
For ourselves
Not just for the money
Find your nitch
Bees make honey
Will Smith on the fresh prince
— funny
How people agree with me
But their time isnt now
There are lights all around
The crowd is no longer sound
What’s your life about
I’m about changing the world
One piece at a time
Is that so much of a crime
Blind but full of visions
Decisions
Trying to keep the youth
Out of prison
Too bad we are all prisoners of our
Own minds
I strive and so can you
It’s my life and everything I do is for you
